I've always referred to The Land (somewhat jokingly) as "The Agriculture Ride."

Well, I do believe both Spaceship Earth and Mission: SPACE, have been called Space Mountain, and I have been asked where Space Mountain was in Epcot.

Originally the rides were called Russian Mountains about a 600 years ago then in 1809 the first rides where made with wheels thus the roller coasters. Some countries still call them Russian Mountains. In Spanish you may hear MontaƱa Rusa or in French Les Montagnes Russe. I would say most of the people who call the Bobsleds the Magic Mountain are from Asian countries.

The best part is when the guest stands drop jawed staring at you like "To get to the ride that is 2 blocks from here, at most, you want me to get in my car and drive north an hour?". It is fun to play with guest's minds, muahaha.

Most guests think of Backlot Tour as "The Tram Ride", so technically, it's right next door to you. (as opposed to the other tram ride, which is out in the parking lot)

As far as the largest marquee ... well, LMA certainly has one of the largest marquees ... I'm not sure if the Muppet Balloon is larger, and Spaceship Earth has a pretty large marquee suspended directly above it, although it doesn't have the attraction name on it, so I'm not quite sure it counts.

I don't think it does. If it did, it would be called EPCOT.
